Two men, both in heterosexual marriages, have an unexpected experience that challenges them to reconsider their understanding of sexuality, gender, and identity. One has a sexual encounter with another man, without considering it either as an expression of homosexuality or infidelity, and discusses it with his wife afterwards. The other finds himself in nocturnal dreams where he is seen as a woman, stirring confusion and leading him to question how much his personality is shaped by the gaze of others. “Sex” is a warm and inquiring drama about how intimacy and freedom operate in modern relationships and gender roles, penned by Dag Johan Haugerud. Haugerud has established himself as one of Norway’s foremost directors, following the critically acclaimed films “Beware of Children”, “The Light from the Chocolate Factory”, and “I Belong”. Jan Gunnar Røise and Thorbjørn Harr shine on the big screen, in characters whose understanding of themselves is challenged in fascinating, liberating, and at times frightening ways. “Sex” is the first part of the trilogy SEX-LOVE-DREAMS. These three freestanding films by Dag Johan Haugerud all revolve around desire, identity, and the longing for freedom. The film won three awards at the Berlin Film Festival.
